Name change... any regrets?

I have no attachment to my last name because I don't care for my father nor do I know anyone else from that side of my family but it's kind of unique and most people call me by my last name, that's the only thing that has me questioning what I should do. At the end of the day I want to be Mrs. FH so I may just push it behind FH's last name or something.

I have no middle name, so I'm making my maiden name my middle name also. I'm pretty excited because I've always wanted a middle name, and I didn't want to completely get rid of my maiden name.

I had no idea you could move your maiden name to your second middle name. I will really miss my last name as 1) my father passed away and I was his only child, so no one to carry the name on for him and 2) I have been a Mirasolo for 40 years....so it will be strange being something else.

I'm going to keep my maiden name for a couple of years and change once we get pregnant. Reason is I'd have to update my last name in 2 countries (passports, SS card, IDs, etc..) so I'm being lazy and taking my time. Once kids come into the picture, I'd like for us to all share the same last name as a unit. I joke with my FH that it's to make sure the marriage sticks LOL

I've been debating this. I never planned on changing my last name after marriage, but my FH said he would like me to, but will leave it to me. If he had pushed it I probably wouldn't change it.

I'm going to use my maiden name as my middle name. It is more commonly seen as a girls first name anyways. I may keep my middle name too, since it is only one syllable and my last name is short also.

Success! The DMV (IL) and social security office have accepted our idea. It was easier and cheaper than I thought... bonus all my names are now on my ID. I wonder if that will lead to fewer questions while I am in "name limbo" I'm sure I'll be thinking of more places to change my name over the next several months

I just dropped my middle name, so my legal name is FN, maiden name, ex husbands last name.

I'm still trying to deal with the same thing, as much as I like my maiden name, it just does not fit with my soon to be married name. I was planning on completely dropping my maiden name and just using my middle name instead. I'm just afraid I'll have regrets dropping my maiden name, the name I have gone by for so long. Hope you figure something out!
